I grew up in Socal and moved to South Carolina for my senior year in HS. I didn't even know I could sweat before I got to my first football practice right in the middle of August, South Carolina style.

The air was so moist I might as well have been Phelps.

The amount of skin skivvies I became aware of still staggers me. Do a search on impataigo:eek:

What the SoCal kids have is not JI, it's an STD.:)

it could be that this particular fungus can aerosolize spores - I dunno

but direct contact could easily spread it - people often touch their clothing with their feet while putting it on or taking it off - that would transfer the fungus to & from the floor where others pick it up

Now for you creepy thought of the day...

The reason it is so hard ot get rid of a fungus infection is that the fungus sends down hyphae (like a simple version of a plant's root) deep down into your body. Every time you kill the surface part of the fungus, the hyphae are still there, ready to sprout back up.

Enjoy dinner! The hyphae sure will....
